Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning device technology, specifically to a cleaning device for cosmetic packaging bottles. Background Technology

[0002] As crucial containers for cosmetic products, the cleanliness of cosmetic packaging bottles directly impacts product quality stability and safety. In current production processes, to ensure hygiene during the filling stage, automated equipment is often used for pre-cleaning of packaging bottles, especially the inner cavity. Common internal cleaning methods include high-pressure pure water rinsing, inner wall spraying, combined air-liquid rinsing, or ultrasonic vibration. Some high-end products also utilize hot air drying and ultraviolet sterilization to effectively remove residual foreign matter, dust, and microorganisms, thereby meeting GMP or related standards.

[0003] However, compared to the relatively mature development of bottle internal cleaning technology, existing technologies pay less attention to the cleaning of the bottle's external surface. The bottle's external surface easily attracts dust, lint, oil, or static electricity particles during various stages such as injection molding, painting, labeling, assembly, and storage and transportation. If these particles are not treated before entering the filling or labeling process, they may not only affect the adhesion and consistency of the product's appearance, but may also become a source of exogenous particulate contamination, especially in filling workshops with high cleanliness requirements. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a cosmetic packaging bottle cleaning device, which aims to alleviate the above problems to at least a certain extent.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: A cosmetic packaging bottle cleaning device, comprising: A cleaning chamber, on which a conveyor belt is provided; A clamping part is provided inside the cleaning box, the clamping part is located above the conveyor belt, and is used to clamp the packaging bottle above the conveyor belt; A cleaning tank is provided inside the cleaning chamber, and a steam generator is provided on the cleaning chamber and communicates with the cleaning tank; A rotating component is provided between the cleaning tank and the clamping part for rotating the clamping part.

[0006] Preferably, the clamping part includes a bracket disposed inside the cleaning tank, a guide rod connected to the bracket, two clamping plates slidably connected to the guide rod, a cylinder connected to the bracket, and the telescopic shaft of the cylinder connected to the clamping plates.

[0007] Preferably, a rubber strip is connected to the clamp.

[0008] Preferably, the rotating component includes a drive motor connected to the cleaning tank, a rotating shaft connected to the drive shaft of the drive motor, a support rod connected to the rotating shaft, and the support rod being fixed to the bracket.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the cleaning tank has multiple bottom openings that penetrate the cleaning tank.

[0010] Preferably, the sidewall of the cleaning tank has multiple side openings.

[0011] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages: This application achieves multi-angle cleaning of the outer surface of cosmetic packaging bottles by setting up a clamping part, a rotating component, and a cleaning tank structure. The clamping part slides with a guide rod and a clamping plate, and is driven by a cylinder to clamp the bottle. Rubber strips connected to the clamping plate effectively buffer the clamping force, prevent bottle damage, and improve clamping stability and adaptability. The rotating component is motor-driven, using a shaft and support rod to rotate the entire clamping part, smoothly turning the packaging bottle from a vertical position to a position with the bottle opening facing downwards, ensuring that steam can fully cover the inside and outside of the bottle. The bottom of the cleaning tank has multiple through openings for steam to rise and concentrate on the bottle, while multiple side openings on the side walls form a surrounding steam channel, improving the uniformity of steam distribution and cleaning coverage. During the cleaning process, the bottle is lowered by loosening and re-clamping the clamping part, allowing for the replacement of the clamped area and effectively eliminating cleaning blind spots. The overall structure is well-coordinated and suitable for various materials and bottle shapes, offering advantages such as thorough cleaning, strong adaptability, and bottle protection. It is particularly suitable for pre-treatment of packaging bottles with high cleanliness requirements before filling. Attached Figure Description

[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0015] refer to Figures 1-4 This embodiment provides a cosmetic packaging bottle cleaning device, including a cleaning box 100, a conveyor belt 101, a clamping part, a cleaning tank 102, a rotating part, and a steam generator 103.

[0016] The cleaning chamber 100 has a semi-enclosed structure, which is used to define the cleaning area and collect the steam and condensate generated during the cleaning process; the cleaning chamber 100 is provided with a conveyor belt 101 extending along its length, which is used to carry and transport the cosmetic packaging bottles to be cleaned.

[0017] The clamping part is located on the upper part of the cleaning box 100, above the conveyor belt 101, and is used to clamp the packaging bottles conveyed on the conveyor belt 101 during the cleaning stage.

[0018] The cleaning tank 102 is located inside the lower part of the cleaning chamber 100, with its upper opening facing upwards. It is hollow and is used to receive and release high-temperature steam generated by the steam generator 103 for steam rinsing and cleaning of the bottle. The steam generator 103 is connected to the cleaning tank 102 through a conduit and can continuously inject high-temperature steam into the cleaning tank 102 to maintain the temperature and humidity of the cleaning environment.

[0019] The rotating component is located between the cleaning chamber 100 and the clamping part, and can drive the clamping part to rotate. During operation, the rotating component drives the clamping part to rotate, causing the packaging bottle to gradually flip from its initial upright state to a state with the bottle mouth facing down, and finally rotate to the top of the cleaning tank 102; at this time, a preset distance is maintained between the bottle and the cleaning tank 102 to facilitate the full coverage of the bottle by steam.

[0020] During the cleaning process, the packaging bottle is placed on the conveyor belt 101 from upstream. After being conveyed by the conveyor belt 101 to the area below the clamping part, the clamping part holds the bottle and rotates it with the rotating component to the top of the cleaning tank 102, completing the flipping and positioning. Once in position, the steam generator 103 continuously sprays steam into the cleaning tank 102. The steam accumulates in the cleaning tank 102 and overflows upwards, fully contacting the inside and outside surfaces of the bottle to achieve high-temperature cleaning.

[0021] Furthermore, after the steam cleaning has been performed for a preset time (e.g., 5-20 seconds), the clamping part temporarily releases the bottle body, allowing the bottle body to naturally move down a short distance (e.g., 10-30mm) under the influence of gravity. Then, the clamping part clamps the bottle body again, thereby changing the heated area of ​​the bottle body shell under the action of steam. This allows for the alternating exposure of multiple height areas on the outside of the same bottle body during the cleaning process, avoiding blind spots in cleaning caused by clamping obstruction, thereby improving the overall cleaning coverage and cleaning uniformity.

[0022] In this embodiment, the clamping part includes a bracket 200 disposed inside the cleaning tank 100. The bracket 200 is made of aluminum alloy profile or stainless steel plate welded together. A guide rod 201 is connected to the bracket 200 to limit the sliding direction.

[0023] With the above setup, during the cleaning operation, the cosmetic packaging bottle to be cleaned is conveyed to the area below the clamping part via the conveyor belt 101. Once the bottle is in position, the cylinder 203 is activated, driving the telescopic shaft to move and causing the two clamping plates 202 to slide along the guide rod 201, ultimately clamping the middle of the bottle. At this point, the packaging bottle is in a stable clamping state, facilitating subsequent rotation and flipping operations.

[0024] In this embodiment, a rubber strip 204 is attached to the inner surface of the clamping plate 202. The rubber strip 204 is made of a flexible elastic material, such as silicone, nitrile rubber, or polyurethane rubber. The rubber strip 204 can be attached to the inner surface of the clamping plate 202 by adhesive bonding, an embedded groove structure, or screw fixing. The outer surface of the rubber strip 204 protrudes slightly from the surface of the metal body of the clamping plate 202 to form a flexible contact interface, which effectively buffers the clamping force, increases friction, and reduces the risk of scratching or indentation on the bottle surface when clamping the packaging bottle.

[0025] With the above setup, during the clamping process, cylinder 203 pushes the telescopic shaft to bring the two clamping plates 202 together, clamping the packaging bottle conveyed to the position by conveyor belt 101. The rubber strip 204 on the clamping plate 202 first contacts the outer surface of the bottle and forms a certain deformation during the clamping action. The flexible deformation of the rubber strip 204 can not only absorb the impact of the clamping force and avoid bottle breakage or paint damage due to improper clamping, but also stabilize the bottle body through its elastic rebound characteristics, improving clamping stability.

[0026] In this embodiment, the rotating component includes a drive motor 300, preferably a servo motor or a stepper motor, mounted on the cleaning chamber 100, for controlling the rotation of the clamping part. The drive shaft of the drive motor 300 is connected to a rotating shaft 301, and a support rod 302 is fixed on the rotating shaft 301, with its other end fixedly connected to the support structure 200.

[0027] With the above configuration, during the cleaning process, once the bottle is clamped by the clamping part, the drive motor 300 starts. The torque output by the motor drives the horizontally arranged rotating shaft 301 to rotate via the drive shaft. The support rod 302 on the rotating shaft 301 rotates synchronously. Since the support rod 302 is rigidly fixedly connected to the clamping part bracket 200, the clamping part is flipped over as a whole along with the support rod 302. Through the design of the above rotating structure, the bottle can be smoothly flipped from an upright state to an inverted state, i.e., with the bottle mouth facing down, while the lower half of the outer surface of the bottle is completely exposed to the steam cleaning path, greatly improving the cleaning effect.

[0028] In this embodiment, the cleaning tank 102 is used to receive high-temperature steam from the steam generator 103 and form a local steam accumulation area. The bottom opening 303 guides the steam to the bottle body to rinse the outer surface of the packaging bottle located above it. To improve steam exchange efficiency and avoid condensate accumulation, the bottom of the cleaning tank 102 is provided with multiple openings penetrating the bottom plate of the cleaning tank 102. These openings can be uniformly arranged round holes, elongated grooves, or mesh structures. In this embodiment, the bottom opening 303 is an elongated groove.

[0029] To further improve the circulation efficiency and coverage of steam in the cleaning area, in this embodiment, a plurality of side openings 304 are provided on the side wall of the cleaning tank 102, and the side openings 304 are evenly distributed along the height direction of the cleaning tank 102.

[0030] With the above configuration, the side opening 304 is used to guide steam to escape in the horizontal direction, so that the high-temperature steam inside the cleaning tank 102 can form a surrounding airflow around the bottle, achieving a surrounding rinsing effect on the outer surface of the packaging bottle.

[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
